G) Casting Shadows

Casting shadows on placid waters
Planets clash in a frenzy of golden flame
While the circle turns towards the night
The soldiers take mirth at their game
Where hawthorn grows in foriegn lands
Where seas throw up thier dead
I step towards her and take her hand
While the orphan wolves are fed
Searching for the leviathan
The sailors strike the tethered mule
Where the bridge spans the dialect
Absent children stay at school
Cryptic words cast in closed company
Merge the thoughts of forgotten friends
When all the minds are joined as one
Meet me where the river bends
